Well guys, breaking an egg is way better than breaking a leg. Take it from someone who has done both.
I see an omelet in my future.
Back in my college days at the University of Colorado, every year the engineering school held an event, with a number of contests that the students could participate in. There was a mousetrap powered vehicle contest, which used the power from the spring to propel a small lightweight car max distance. If I remember correctly, there was a concrete canoe race. But the one that I liked watching was the egg drop. Students would design containers to hold an egg. They were then dropped from the eighth story of the engineering tower. There were actually a number of winners.
Forty years later, they're still doing it.
